[Gimp-user] Gimp won't export

[idooley <forums gimpusers com>]

So I'm having trouble with exporting files. I've used gimp for years and it's
never given me this problem. So when I go to export a file, it says it exports
just fine, but after looking for it in the image file on my computer, it's not
there. It seems to only exist within gimp itself, meaning I can open the file
only using gimp, but the file hasn't actually exported. Is there any form of fix
for this?
